Although Gu's mother planned to hand Ruoruo into Huo Jingmo's hands, she felt that she still needed to examine Huo Jingmo's character.
So the next day, he proposed to take Gu Ruojiao back to her mother's house to meet her grandparents and uncles whom she had not seen since she was three years old.
Gu's mother said: "If you disturb me a lot these days, I will personally thank Marshal Huo well after a while."
She handled things so honorably that Huo Jingmo had no room to say no.
Looking at Gu's mother taking Gu Ruojiao into the car, his eyes were full of resentment.
But he saw Little Rose suddenly paused before getting into the car, and then ran towards him.
Huo Jingmo opened his arms to welcome her without thinking.
Gu Ruojiao, who originally just wanted to say goodbye, felt ashamed, but still threw herself into his arms.
"I'm going back with my mother first."
"Um."
"You need to take good care of yourself."
"Um."
"No drinking allowed."
"Um."
He kept silent and only said yes. Gu Ruojiao puffed up her cheeks and raised her head.
"Don't you have anything to say to me?"
Huo Jingmo controlled the urge to kiss her and stroked the back of her head.
"Jiaojiao, wait for me."
Gu Ruojiao smiled sweetly: "Okay!"
But before leaving, she still tried her best to stand up on her tiptoes and kiss him on the lips.
Gu's mother in the distance looked away without looking.
Gu Ruojiao, who was completely unaware that she had done anything wrong, said shyly, "I'll wait for you."
Huo Jingmo's throat moved slightly, but in the end he just said "hmm".
Then the next day, Huo Jingmo came to visit with a bunch of betrothal gifts.
Gu’s mother: “…”
His attitude was sincere and his posture was very low. It didn't look like he was in control of the entire Huashangtan.
Ruoruo's grandfather and uncle were so elated that they directly agreed verbally.
It also created an opportunity for the two of them to be alone together.
When there were only two of them left, Huo Jingmo couldn't wait to stick to her. He couldn't even wait to walk to the sofa. As soon as the door closed, he leaned on her and kissed her.
Gu Ruojiao's legs were so weak from being kissed that she couldn't stand and was about to slide down.
He lifted her up, let her wrap around his waist, held the back of her head and deepened the kiss.
The two were inseparable, and several times they only gave her a chance to breathe before kissing again.
Gu Ruojiao felt like her tongue was about to melt.
After a long time, he finally let her go.
"I miss you so much."
"Me too."
I originally thought he would just show off and come to visit me in a few days.
Unexpectedly, he came the next day.
Her fingertips traced the ends of his eyes, feeling a little angry.
"Did you not sleep well?"
"I miss you and can't sleep."
He also crossed her eyes: "You didn't sleep well either."
"I can't sleep in a strange bed."
She didn't admit that it was because she felt something was wrong without his embrace, so she tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep well.
But Huo Jingmo is so familiar with this little rose, how could he not know how delicate she is and how dependent she is on him.
So even though he knew that his behavior might make his elders unhappy, he still proposed to take Gu Ruojiao back.
Grandpa and uncle's expressions were a bit subtle, but Gu's mother was much more open-minded.
It's not like she didn't see the dark spots under her daughter's eyes.
Gu's mother: "But I would like to ask, when will the young commander marry Jiaojiao?"
Huo Jingmo: "If Auntie doesn't mind, I think the wedding will be ready at the beginning of next month."
It should be said that he had already made preparations several months ago.
It just wasn't the right time.
But now, he doesn't want to be separated from her for a moment.
